Question

Simplify. Use the distributive property. 5(3x+1)​

Answer 1

`\huge\boxed{Hello\:there!:)}`

The Distributive Property states that

a(b+c)=ab+ac (we multiply a by b and c)

Let's use this fantastic property to solve our problem:

5(3x+1)

15x+5

That's our final answer.

Remember, we can't add variables and numbers together.

`\huge\boxed{\sf{Hope\:it\:helps!}}`

`\huge\bf{Good\:luck!}`

`\huge\mathfrak{LoveLastsAllEternity}`

Answer 2

15x+5

Explanation:

First you distribute the 5 to the 3x ( 5 times 3x=15x)

Next you distribute the 5 to the 1 (5 times 1=5)

Finally you put the two answers together 15x+1

you cant simplify it anymore because you cannot add 15x to 1
